Prince Harry has decided to sue the Mirror group newspapers, accusing them of having collected information about him illegally, “to end the hatred” against his wife Meghan. Harry himself said as much on the second and final day of testimony at the High Court in London. To win the case, the son of King Charles and Princess Diana must prove that illegal activities admitted by the Mirror Group newspapers were conducted to target him, including illegally listening to his voicemails. Former Daily Mirror reporter covering the royals, Jane Kerr, admitted in court that she worked with private detectives to obtain personal details such as phone numbers and addresses of people the newspaper needed to contact.
“It didn’t occur to me that anything was illegal, the main thing was to check that the story was accurate,” he said in court. There are still more than two weeks to go before the end of the trial and the appearance of witnesses and final statements is expected. But there are no plans for Harry to appear in court again. All of England, including the royal family, is closely watching the London court.
